We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).

miller60 writes "'Google is seeking to patent a system that provides precision cooling inside racks of servers, automatically adjusting to temperature changes while reducing the energy required to run chillers.' The cooling design uses an adjustable piping system featuring 'air wands' that provide small amounts of cold air to components within a server tray. The cooling design, which could help Google reduce the power bill for its servers, reinforces Google's focus on data center innovation as a competitive advantage. Check out the patent application and a diagram of the system."

I will now commit rutual seppuku to prevent the savage flaming i am no doubt abount to receive.

Death is no escape from a savage flaming on slashdot. It just means we will be crisping your corpse and be denied the joys of imagining the sounds of your lamentations and woe. On second thought, we could just *pretend* you didn't commit seppuku, and still have those joys. So really, your effort goes wasted -- please put the wakizashi down and resume whatever it was you were doing.

On the other hand, maybe you *weren't* going to really commit suppuku, and were just pretending to, to throw the flamers off your trail. If so, nice move. You have confounded the Slashdot Flamemasters. I salute you.
